Chapter 167
Because her father was Congressman Walter Riley, who was also a supporter of the A.R.G.U.S. Argus Project.
The Suicide Squad project falls under the Argus Project!
In other words, Firehawk's father is one of Amanda Waller's financial backers. Would she dare to let her financial backer's daughter join the Suicide Squad project and carry out those near-death experiences?
To put it simply, Amanda Waller wouldn't care if Su Quan took away any of the criminals from Dream Prison, except for Firehawk!
Taking a deep breath, Amanda Waller said seriously, "You can take Copperhead with you. If one isn't enough, you can take several more. Apart from her, you can pick anyone you like from here."
"Not only that, I will also transfer all the files of everyone you took away, including Poison Ivy, to Arkham Asylum. You can give them life sentences, reduce their sentences, or even release them directly, no problem!"
"But she has to stay."
Su Quan glanced at her. "Are you teaching me how to do things?"
Amanda Waller quickly explained, "I didn't mean that. It's just that Firehawk's identity is special. Her father is a senator. With your abilities, Firehawk's skills are just icing on the cake. Why create unnecessary trouble?"
"I think you should know how much power a congressman can wield. Yes, you are strong, and he can't threaten you, but he can make you unhappy!"
"You can kill him, it's easy for you, but she is Firehawk's father after all! Besides, killing him will definitely anger the other members of parliament, and even the entire government!"
"You may not care, but it's not worth it!"
Amanda Waller spoke earnestly and sincerely, and every word he uttered was a wise and insightful observation from the perspective of Su Quan.
This analysis of the pros and cons is indeed persuasive enough to change the minds of most people.
But is Su Quan an ordinary person?
He could tell that Amanda Waller was subtly warning him by using the word 'government' while analyzing the pros and cons.
Whether it's the US Government or its members of Congress, these people are experts at internal strife but inept at external conflict. As long as you live on Earth and abide by its rules, their internal strife skills will be maxed out instantly.
Putting aside everything else, they're willing to hold a parliamentary trial for Superman, simply because they've discovered that Superman's personality is easy to bully, and then they bully him to death!
Why didn't you judge General Zod when he came? Why didn't you judge Steppenwolf when he came?
I'm going to interrogate you, you son of a bitch!
Back to the present, if a single Amanda Waller, a member of parliament, and a 'government' could make Su Quan obediently keep the people he favored, then what would be the point of him staying?
What do you mean by Omniscient & Omnipotent?
What Lord of the Void?
That's utter nonsense!
Amanda Waller chose the wrong approach; if she had tried to play the victim and beg for mercy, there might have been a sliver of a chance.
Now?
Su Quan chuckled and asked her, "What if I insist on taking her away?"
"Kill me? Torture me? Bury me?"
"You wouldn't dare, would you?"
"Then wait quietly and don't make a sound!"
Amanda Waller's expression changed slightly, and she said solemnly, "Do you really have to do this?"
"Otherwise what?"
"Then there's nothing we can do." Amanda Waller took a few steps back and stood behind a woman wearing a black jumpsuit and a huge eye patch.
This woman is Night Shadow!
Amanda Waller was planning to use Nightshade to deal with him? Su Quan thought to himself, but then he saw Amanda Waller lower his head and wiggle the device in his sleeve a few times.
Immediately afterwards, a series of clicking sounds were heard as all the cell doors on both sides of the corridor opened. At the same time, the entire Dream Prison was enveloped by a special energy field, and the doors to all the cells in the prison, whether for ordinary prisoners or Superman prisoners, opened.
Then, the prisoners in the cells came out, some excited and some calm, and began to gather in this direction.
Amanda Waller didn't want to rely on Nightshade; he wanted to get all the criminals in Dream Prison to come out and attack him!
That's quite bold of you!
"I'm leaving it to you. See me off." Amanda Waller whispered to Nightshade.
Nightshade flicked his wrist, unleashing a burst of black Shadow Energy that teleported Amanda Waller away...
"Trying to slip away? No way!"
Su Quan opened the Teleportation Portal with his backhand and used his Telekinesis to pull Amanda Waller, who had just been teleported outside the Dream Prison, back.
"Bang!"
Amanda Waller, who flew in through the Teleportation Portal, crashed directly in front of Su Quan.
Nightshade was immediately alarmed and waved his hand, sending a ball of black Shadow Energy toward Su Quan in an attempt to save Amanda Waller.
"Bite!"
"Combat detected. Reward dropped: Shadow Energy Manipulation (Night Shadow)"
As the battle rewards dropped, Su Quan unleashed Shadow Energy with one hand to clash with Night Shadow, and with a gentle wave of his other hand, Amanda Waller was instantly and involuntarily drifted toward the camera in the corner.
"What, what are you going to do?"
"Nightshade, save me!"
Amanda Waller Wore panicked!
Nightshade was also stunned; she never expected that Su Quan could also Shadow Energy Manipulation.
Could he also be from the Shadowlands?
Upon hearing Amanda Waller's cry for help, Nightshade didn't have time to think and immediately abandoned the beam attack, teleporting over to him.
"Call out--"
As soon as Nightshade appeared next to Amanda Waller, there was a loud bang, and Amanda Waller's head exploded.
Red and white, thin and dry sprays were sprayed all over Nightshade. Even though Nightshade was a battle-hardened super agent, Amanda Waller's explosion stunned her.
This also baffled the nearby criminals and the staff behind the cameras!
Amanda Waller, he... he's dead?!
This is Amanda Waller, the local tyrant of Dream Prison. Whether it's prisoners or staff, everyone behaves themselves in front of her, not daring to even breathe loudly.
So, he just died like that?!
Su Quan not only killed Amanda Waller, but also deliberately killed Amanda Waller in front of the camera?
This is just too arrogant!
Isn't he afraid of becoming an enemy of the whole world?
When Amanda Waller was alive, many criminals had no choice but to obey her orders. Now that Amanda Waller is dead, and the person who killed her is clearly more formidable, many criminals have instantly changed their minds!
P. S.: I forgot if I've mentioned it before, but I've lived with my grandma since I was little, and I still live with her now. She's over eighty years old. I accompanied her to get a haircut today, which is why today's update is a little late.
The criminals, who had been eyeing the prison with predatory intent, instantly split into several groups. Some turned around and went back to their cells, intending to stay out of it and protect themselves; others prepared to take advantage of the chaos to escape from the Dream Prison.
Some remained stationary near Su Quan, partly to observe the situation and potentially switch sides at any time, and partly because Su Quan was very strong and ruthless, so following him was the best option for the time being, whether for getting out or after getting out.
Of course, a large number of people chose to continue with the original plan: to capture or kill Su Quan!
These people make this choice partly to gain a reduced sentence, and partly because they have more faith in the power of the government.
After all, they didn't know much about Su Quan. Even though Su Quan killed Amanda Waller and seemed very powerful, the government and the A.R.G.U.S. n't possibly remain indifferent to what he did.
Powerful?
Are there not enough powerful prisoners in Dream Prison?
No matter how powerful an individual is, it's impossible for them to have enemies all over the world, or to stand against the machinery of a state!
"Buzz!"
Su Quan unleashed his Psychic Abilities, and in an instant, he accessed the memories of everyone in the Dream Prison.
Psychic Abilities are also a form of combat, especially when engaging in physical attacks.
Professor X is undoubtedly the strongest in terms of Psychic Abilities, especially when he uses the Cerebro to enhance his powers. Theoretically, he could kill all of humanity in an instant and wipe out the human race completely!
Of course, Professor X would never do that. He is a complete dove, dedicating his life to the peaceful coexistence of humans and Mutants!
But—there's no distinction between humans and Mutants here.
There are only enemies and non-enemies!
Su Quan's Psychic Abilities have successively combined those of Professor X, the White Queen, and the Zombie Scarlet Witch. Even if they don't reach the level of covering the entire world, they can definitely cover a small Dream Prison.
Almost simultaneously, everyone in the Dream Prison who was preparing to continue targeting Su Quan, whether criminals or staff, froze as if a pause button had been pressed.
Immediately afterwards, at the same time, all of them bled from their seven orifices and collapsed to the ground.
Dead!
He died silently, without any warning.
The deaths were terrifying and filled with inexplicable panic.
